Static-X have announced a 2022 North American tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 2001, sophomore full-length, Machine. The trek, dubbed The Rise of the Machine Tour, will include Fear Factory and Dope, with select dates featuring Mushroomhead and Twiztid. Static-X said of the tour
“We are so excited to finally get back out on the road. We plan to play most of the songs off of both ‘Machine‘ and ‘Wisconsin Death Trip‘, as well a number of nice surprises that are being incorporated into the set list. It is going to be awesome to have Fear Factory, Dope, & Mushroomhead back out on the road with us to share in all of this nostalgic insanity.
All in all, this package is going to be one for the ages and we can’t wait to get out there and celebrate 20 years of our ‘Machine‘ record, while we continue to remember all of the good times that we had with Wayne and to share it live and loud with all of our fans night after night.”
Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares shared:
“I’m beyond excited to finally turn the Fear Factory machine back on and start crushing stages alongside our longtime friends in Static-X.”
Edsel Dope, frontman of Dope, said of the run:
“We are honored to be part of this tour. Static-X, Fear Factory, & Dope toured together back in 1999. It was the first time that we all met, and it laid the foundation for all of the tours that Dope and Static have done together. I can’t wait to get back out there and get crazy with all the fans!”
News of the anniversary tour comes with an announcement of a 20th anniversary edition of Machine. For tickets, VIP, Machine pre-orders, and more visit Static-X.org.
